thousand towers.






rooftop.

"nah, sudah malam..."

pandang langit.
gelap gelita.
kosong.

"...pun masih belum nampak bintang. hahaha."
"light pollution."
"err, semacam river pollution? contaminated water? air pollution? jerebu?"
"ya. kind of. and what else? sound pollution pun ada.. emm, jap.."

keluarkan enset.
buka random mp3.
turn up volume to the loudest.
baca random message dalam whatsapp.

"hear me well?" 
"ah, not really.. and its annoying..  so, this is how it works. "

mp3 stopped.

"ha, sama macam pencemaran cahaya. ada masanya kita cari cahaya-cahaya tertentu, tapi pandangan kita terganggu atau mungkin tertutup dengan cahaya lain yang lebih terang, yang lebih dekat. macam cahaya bintang di langit, kita tak dapat cari sebab pandangan kita dipenuhi cahaya daripada bumi, semua yang ada di depan kita sekarang ni la.." 
"make sense." 
"itu cahaya fizikal, cahaya yang mata kita cari. by the way, hati kita pun cari cahaya kan? so, ada probabiliti berlaku pencemaran cahaya jugak kan dalam hati kita?" 
"ya, sure. maybe we haven't found the right light we seek because pollution was there, surrounding our heart."
"so, how to clean it up?"
"i dont know.. mungkin boleh try turn off unwanted light source. put some filter or something that can remove unwanted light from entering our heart. eh, kan we do light filtering in photography? like all those flawless picture.."
"ya.. or maybe we can move somewhere far from those contaminated light. there must be, at some distance, those polluted light atmosphere will no longer affecting our sight. on the other hand, the true light that we seek, shouldn't we get closer to it? to get a better view of it?" 
"yup."

pandang bumi.
warna warni.
benderang.

"surah al-buruj." 
"surah bintang?" 
"yup. buruj in this surah referred to the stars. and you know what, there is another meaning of the word buruj." 
"what?" 
"tower. or something that rise up high." 
"macam burj khalifa di dubai tu?" 
"you've got a point there. burj is the singular version and buruj is for the plural. so, that should brought us to another point of view in our tadabbur kan?" 
"towers in the sky?"
"sort of. but lets write about that on another day maybe.. dude, i'm tired.. hungry.. and ughh, sleepy too.."
"write? but.. i thought this is a real life conversation between two anonymous."
"ah, whatever.." 

sambung star gazing.
